Karlie Redd

Born in New York and raised with her West Indian family in Trinidad, Karlie entered the entertainment arena at an early age. Starting off acting and modeling, by the age of 16 Karlie had over 40 commercials, movies and modeling appearances to her credit.

Moving back stateside at the age of 12, Karlie continued to hone her skills studying voice, music and dance at the Harlem School of the Arts. She also toured with the prestigious Alvin Ailey Dance Company while continuing to model and act. Musically, she began her career working with such noted producers as Commissioner Gordon, Michaelangelo Saulsberry, L.O.S. The Maestro and Jamaican producer Mickey Bennett to perfect her craft. Karlie has also worked with and learned from the likes of Sean Kingston, Claudette Ortiz from City High, Da Rock, the legendary KRS-1, new hot rapper Hot Dollar, Will.I.Am and super producer Lenky responsible for the one international smash “Get Busy” by Sean Paul. Karlie has recorded remixes to the songs “Hate on Me” by Jill Scott and “Bed” by J. Holiday.

Always striving for more Karlie took an interest in the film industry, learning the in’s and out’s of directing and producing in order to be more well rounded in her music career. She holds a film degree in directing and producing. As an artist, she recognizes the value of being knowledgeable of all aspects and hopes to one day be involved in the direction and production of her own music videos.

Influenced by such greats as Celine Dion, Lady Saw, Shaggy and Bob Marley, Karlie’s focus is now solidly back on her blossoming music career. Performing in Los Angeles at venues such as B.B. Kings and sharing the stage with successful contemporary artists such as Tyrese Gibson and Jamie Foxx, Karlie’s live stage shows are high energy, featuring a full band, dancers and plenty of audience participation. She is a force to be reckoned with; a young beautiful entertainer who can sing, dance, model, act, write, produce and direct her own music videos and films.

Ultimately Karlie wants to be a role model for all young women around the world. She is here to represent young women who work hard and never give up on their hopes and dreams. She is the perfect example of how one can accomplish anything you put your mind to. Beauty and brains included, you can have it all!
